Re: Avid Locks Up My Machine

But I had a similar problem once, which was even worse.As soon as I opened another window i.e explorer or even the title tool avid would freeze immediately.

The solution was a clean install of the nvidia driver. Not just an installation of the newest version but a clean install. If you install the new driver there is a box that can be clicked that says something like 'complete install' or 'clean install'

Don't know exactly how it's called in english because I'm on a swiss german speaking computer.

Anyway, what it does is it will first delete every single piece of nvidia drivers and software lurking around from previous installs and will then do a complete new install of the driver.

It helped in my case and the system is running without a single hickup since.
